Nutrition: Dentition in Mammals

Students will analyse the structure, type, and function of teeth in different mammals, relating dentition to diet (carnivore, herbivore, omnivore). They will study dental formulae and the internal structure of a human tooth, including causes and prevention of tooth decay. This topic is important for ECZ questions on adaptation and human biology. It helps Zambian learners understand the link between diet, dental health, and overall wellbeing, supporting the CBC's integration of health education.
